January 21 2010 Alaska Newsletter

Hi from cold but sparkling south central Alaska! What a fine winter day it is! Well, OK ... so it is really COLD (6F at noon today), the firewood seems to get heavier by the day, shoveling snow gets a little tiresome at times and dreams of spring seem so very, very far away.

Still ... there is just no place quite as beautiful! On a clear, cold day like this one, I can see Denali from our north-facing deck. As the sun drops lower in the sky, the distant mountain peak is bathed in a salmon pink/orange glow. Wow. Just spectacular.

Here's the latest article from the Alaska site at BellaOnline.com.

Fur Rondy!
Fur Rendezvous in Anchorage, Alaska is a city-wide party! With sports, food, carnival and dozens of activities, it breaks up the long, dark days of late winter with FUN, laughter, silliness and raucous, rollicking good times! This year, “Rondy” runs from 2/26 through 3/07/2010.
